   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   Years ago, before mowing machines became so numerous mowers were looked upon as a special & qualified class of men The work was very hard & only strong men undertook it.
   There were two famous mowers in the parish, their names were Denis Sweeney & Thomas Condon they lived in Ballymacarbery, another great mower was John Crotty.
   They often took the work on mowing hay & corn by contract and often cut 4 1/2 acres of hay or corn between them in a working day from dawn to dark.
   They died early details & people say that it was the hard work work was the cause of it.

   Richard Lonergan of Newcastle was a great weight-thrower. He could throw the 1/2 cwt. 23 1/2 feet. Patrick Power of Lickoran and William Flynn of Croughclooney were also great weight-throwers but not as good as Richard Lonergan. A brother of William Flynn was a great runner and won several Marathon Races.
